One more thing to add... to order a part online and pick up in the store, the item MUST be in the store's inventory.
Simply call the store and ask them to order the stuff. It will be in the next day in most cases. After it arrives ask a store clerk to return the item to their strock. Then you will see the item online in their inventory. Then you can proceed to do your ordering and use your coupon codes.
Most stores I've dealt with most employees know this process. Sometimes newbies don't know how to return to stock. So ask an experienced employee.
